Heres the deal... I have Incredimail which automatically gets my mail from mail.yahoo.com. In the past 2 hours I have gotten 32 emails containing the sobig virus, flooding my inbox and making my norton antivirus go off the wall every time it checks for email. I figured i'd see if theres anyway to stop this, I don't think there is.. I could just stop incredimail from getting my email's but im afraid that i'll get enough of them collecting in the yahoo mail server overnight that they will fill up my account (i only have 4mb of storage with alot of space already taken up, which is why i depend on incredimail) So basically, is there anyway to stop getting email's containing these viruses.. i dont have it on my computer.. and I can't just block them because there coming from different people and I don't have a list of contacts that i can choose only to accept emails from. I doubt that theres a solution, but thought I would try.

has your email client got the ability to filter based on subject or attachment

yep, it does actually, thanks,.. and I got them to go to the trash folder.. only problem now is that the email's are going to take up space there.. and all those 38 emails took up 75% of my mailbox space (went to trash and incredimail because a virus was detected, normally it removes it off of yahoo's mail server completely) and theres no way to have yahoo mail delete the emails automatically.. thought i would try.. thanks anyways unless you have any other ideas/suggestions.. thanks.
